TIPS FOR KEEPING SKIN HEALTHY, SUMMER 2010

Many women around the world look to makeup to have a beautiful appearance. The problem comes in where continuous application of all sorts of products eventually takes its toll on your skin and you can and up with dry, damaged skin. To help keep your skin healthy there is a number of things you should keep in mind.

Moisturize: By using a moisturizer you will help to keep your skin moist and looking healthy. It will also help when it comes to makeup application, making for a smoother process.

Powder: When it comes to powder, less is more. The more powder you use the more fake your makeup job will look, and the more substances your skin has to deal with. This can clog your pores and lead to a whole new range of issues.

Lipstick: You may have fantasies about looking like all those gorgeous movie stars with the red lips, but looking like that all the time can take its toll. Lips were not meant to endure layer after layer of lipstick, so if you do use it a lot, try to get ones that will moisturize your lips as well.

Makeup remover: Makeup remover is your best friend at the end of the night. While manufacturers make products to last 24 hours, this is never a good idea if you think of the range of chemicals and substances you put on your face during any given makeup session. Always invest in a good remover and make sure you go to bed with clear skin.

Labels: Many women buy what everyone else is using, but it is very important that you read the labels. You want makeup that is chemical-free, non-toxic, and that does not cause any allergic reactions. This will go a long way to keeping your skin healthy.

SCARLETT JOHANSSON MAKEUP STYLE

SCARLETT JOHANSSON MAKEUP STYLE

Sometimes it takes a great deal of courage to defy the latest trends in makeup. While there is no particular makeup trend for the upcoming season, Scarlett Johansson have made her way of continuing the look of playful summer for months to come. She sports earthy shades matching the warmth brought by summer.

Consider having a smoky eye look in earthy colors. This kind of shades will make the eyes pop especially ladies with brown or green eyes. To make the eyes even bolder, use a black eye liner and define those beautifully done lids and lashes. You may want to keep your eyebrows thick but sleek. Thick eyebrows are definitely in fashion as they draw more attention to the eyes when you keep them nicely shaped.

A very simple rule when sporting a smoky eye look is keeping the lips nude. Using dark lip color can be a disaster giving you a heavy makeup that can be quite displeasing to look at. You can choose to use a shiny colorless lip gloss or a matte earthy lipstick. If you can find a lipstick that is close to your natural lip color, the better.

Scarlett Johansson Casual Makeup Style

The blush need not be as red as the actual one you get when exposed in the sun. Again, the makeup should focus more on the eyes. Therefore, a hint of cheek color is enough for this look. Add to much blush and you might look like you have been slapped in the face a dozen times.
